SFP-transceiver BlueOptics AFBR-5710LZ glasvezel 1250 Mbit/s 850 nm

The BlueOptics AFBR-5710LZ SFP transceiver is a compact fiber optic module engineered for 1.25 Gbit/s-class links, operating at an 850 nm wavelength. Designed for insertion into SFP ports of switches, routers and media converters, this module supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and is intended for multimode fiber applications where short-range optical connectivity is required. The straightforward form factor and standard SFP interface ensure compatibility with a wide range of network equipment that accepts SFP modules.

Advantages

The module provides a standardized SFP interface that simplifies installation and replacement in existing network devices. With support for a 1250 Mbit/s throughput and operation at 850 nm, it is optimized for short-distance multimode fiber links commonly used in data center uplinks, campus networks and enterprise connections. Its small size and standardized electrical/optical characteristics enable flexible deployment without requiring major hardware changes.

Suitable for

• Short-range multimode fiber links in data centers
• Uplinks between switches and servers
• Campus and enterprise network segment connections
• Media converters and network appliances with SFP slots

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (small form-factor pluggable)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 1250 Mbit/s
• Operating wavelength: 850 nm
• Typical application: short-range multimode fiber links
• Form factor: hot-pluggable SFP module

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics AFBR-5710LZ into a compatible SFP port on your network device while the device is powered down or following the manufacturer's hot-plugging procedures. Connect the multimode fiber cable with the appropriate connector type (for example, LC) to the optical port, ensuring correct polarity and secure connections. After installation, verify link status and data rate via the host device management interface or LEDs. Monitor temperature and signal diagnostics if supported by the host to ensure stable operation.

Recommendations

Use this transceiver with multimode fiber appropriate for 850 nm operation and keep fiber ends clean to minimize insertion loss. Match the module to network equipment that supports SFP transceivers and the intended link budget; consult equipment documentation for compatibility and any required settings. Avoid exposing the module to excessive mechanical stress, moisture, or temperatures outside the device specifications.
